Unfortunately, due to the inadequacy of historical sources, the information about Veli’s family, childhood, and upbringing are as much as we could have obtained from the Velayet-n\u00e2me written after his death. Haji Bektash Veli was born twenty-four years after the marriage of H\u00e2tem (Hatme) Hatun, the daughter of a scholar named Sheikh Ahmed of Ni\u015fabur, with \u0130brahim\u00fc’s-S\u00e2n\u00ee Seyyid Muhammed, the Sultan of Khorasan. After his father’s death, Veli did not accept the sultanate and left it to his uncle\u2019s son, Seyyid Hasan. He was indeed born and raised in the city of Nishapur in Khorasan and later came to Anatolia.<\/p>\n
Hac\u0131 Bekta\u015f Veli was brought up in a great cultural environment and received a high-level education. His knowledge of Arabic, primary sources, and his influences in Anatolia and beyond clearly show this. When Haji Bektash Veli was four years old, his father sent him to Lokman Perende, one of the caliphs of Ahmed Yesevi, to learn science. Thus, he learns the external and internal sciences. In Velayet-n\u00e2me, it is stated that before he was given the rank of Kutbu’l-aktab and sent to Anatolia, he spent his time day and night with fasting, prayer, worship, obedience, zuhd, piety, and righteous deeds for forty years. Haji Bektash Veli, who went from Khorasan to Turkestan, was assigned to Rum by his mentor, Ahmed-i Yesev\u00ee. First, he goes to Hajj, and then he goes to Rum (Anatolia). According to the information given by \u00c2\u015f\u0131kpa\u015fa-z\u00e2de, one of the first Ottoman historians, Haji Bektash Veli, left Horasan with his brother Mente\u015f, came to Anatolia, and settled in Suluca Kara\u00f6y\u00fck<\/p>\n
Haji Bektash Veli, who has an important place in the Turkish-Islamic world and whose influence has survived today, is a mystic, scholar, and pioneer of the Bektashi path. The ‘Mak\u00e2l\u00e2t,’ which is his most voluminous work and includes his treatises on Sufi subjects, ‘\u015eerh-i Besmele’ in which he talks about the virtues of basmala, ‘Fatiha Tafsiri’ in which he explains and interprets Surah Fatiha word for word, ‘Sathiyye,’ ‘Mak\u00e2l\u00e2t-\u0131 Gaybiyye’ and Kelim\u00e2t-\u0131 Ayniyye is known as Kit\u00e2bu’l-Fev\u00e2id.<\/p>\n
The date of Haji Bektash Veli\u2019s death is accepted as 1271. It is recorded that after Haji Bektash came to Kayseri with his brother Mente\u015f and after Mente\u015f martyred, Haji Bektash came to Kara\u00f6y\u00fck from Kayseri and his grave is there. His grave is in the Haji Bektash district, which is within the borders of today’s Nev\u015fehir province.<\/p>\n
2021 was declared the ‘Year of Haji Bektash Veli’ with the circular issued by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Turkey, while Veli was also included in the ‘UNESCO 2021 Commemoration and Celebration Program’ all over the world on the occasion of the 750th anniversary of his death.<\/p>\n
